I have a planted 30 gallon tank, which I love with exception of the ugly colored light and dark blue gravel. I really like how black sand looks, and I found black fluorite sand online which is supposed to help plant growth, but can I add it to my existing tank? Here's the link to the sand:

How would I add sand to the aquarium? I'm not planning on completely replacing the gravel, just adding the sand on top of it. How can I make sure to add the sand in a way that the fish won't be affected (a dozen neon tetras, 2 bolivian rams, and panda cory), and will it get cloudy?
Thanks a bunch. :]
